Manchester United will compete in the Europa League next term (Photo by Visionhaus/Getty Images)Manchester United and Manchester City will be cleared to compete in Europe together along sister clubs Nice and Girona. The two Manchester clubs qualified for Europe next term after City won the Premier League to ensure a spot in the Champions League and United won the FA Cup to book a Europa League spot. However, La Liga side Girona and Ligue 1 side Nice are part of City and United’s mult-club ownership model. Uefa rules stipulate that clubs under the same ownership cannot compete in the same competition. City Football Group owns a host of clubs around the world, including Girona and New York City FC.
